Are you dealing with persistent jaw pain, discomfort when chewing, or noticing a change in your jawline? These symptoms could point to a TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorder or an enlargement of the jaw muscle, known as masseter hypertrophy. At Evolve Dentistry in Portishead, we offer a therapeutic approach that may help relieve these symptoms by reducing muscle tension and improving the comfort and appearance of your jawline.
TMJ disorders, along with conditions like bruxism (teeth grinding) and masseter hypertrophy, can cause chronic discomfort and affect the jaw’s appearance. Many of these issues stem from excessive jaw muscle activity, often related to clenching, grinding, stress, or even past injuries, which can lead to a bulkier jawline, headaches, and other problems.
If these symptoms sound familiar, a visit to Evolve could offer you relief and improved comfort.
At Evolve, we provide a treatment option that targets overactive jaw muscles, which can help relieve discomfort while enhancing jaw function. By working with the muscles around the jaw, this approach may offer:
Your experience begins with a thorough consultation to assess symptoms, understand any specific concerns, and discuss your treatment goals. During this assessment, Dr. Yasmin Zeina will talk with you about your jaw discomfort, grinding, clenching, and any aesthetic preferences, such as achieving a more streamlined jawline.
To achieve the best results, your initial treatments will be spread out every 3-4 months for the first year, allowing gradual and lasting improvement in muscle function and appearance. Following this initial phase, maintenance treatments are typically spaced every six months to help sustain these benefits over time.
At Evolve Dentistry in Portishead, we’re committed to delivering high-quality, personalised care for patients facing TMJ and masseter-related concerns. Our approach is designed not only to help with jaw discomfort but also to support your overall sense of well-being.
If you’d like to discover whether Evolve’s treatment could help relieve your jaw pain or enhance your jawline comfort, contact us today to schedule a consultation. Dr. Yasmin Zeina and the team are here to help answer your questions and guide you on a path to greater comfort and confidence.

Brushing your teeth is important… but it’s only part of the story 🦷
In this video, Richard explains why cleaning between your teeth matters too - and the different ways you can do it, including:
✔ Floss
✔ TePe brushes
✔ Water flossers
Your toothbrush can’t always reach the tight spaces between your teeth, which means plaque and food can build up in these areas over time.
Cleaning between your teeth daily can help reduce:
✨ Gum problems
✨ Bad breath
✨ Tooth decay between teeth
Not sure which option is best for you? There’s no one-size-fits-all approach, and our team can help you find what works best for your smile and lifestyle.

Do you wake up with jaw pain, headaches or tension in your face? You could be clenching or grinding your teeth without even realising it.
In this video, Yasmin discusses how neurotoxin injections may help relieve symptoms associated with TMJ problems and teeth grinding.
For some patients, treatment can help to:
✨ Relax overactive jaw muscles
✨ Reduce clenching and grinding
✨ Ease tension and discomfort
✨ Help with headaches linked to jaw strain
Many people grind their teeth during sleep or clench during stressful periods, often without knowing they’re doing it.
If you’ve been experiencing symptoms such as:
• Jaw ache
• Facial tension
• Headaches
• Worn teeth
• Clicking or tightness in the jaw
…it may be worth exploring your options.

✨ A little update from us at Evolve Dentistry ✨
As many of our patients know, our practice is currently closed this week while essential repair work is being carried out.
While everything is being completed, we’d just like to gently remind everyone not to leave any dental concerns until the last minute where possible. If something doesn’t feel quite right, please get in touch with us sooner rather than later so we can help arrange the most appropriate care for you.
Thank you so much for your patience, kindness and understanding while the work takes place - we’re looking forward to welcoming everyone back very soon. 💙

Did you know? 👀
One of the simplest ways to improve your oral health is cleaning between your teeth every day.
Your toothbrush cleans the front, back and biting surfaces of your teeth - but it can’t always reach the tight spaces in between, where plaque and food can build up.
Using interdental brushes or floss daily can help:
✨ Reduce gum problems
✨ Freshen breath
✨ Lower the risk of decay between teeth
Not sure which products are best for you? Our team would always be happy to help guide you.
Small habits really do make a big difference 💙
